seems, SAVIOR of bad taste. For instance
for her to countermand the orders for

dramatic work might still expose some de-
fects, yet one would not have the heart to
dwell on them in a review of her exceedingly
pleasing performance at the Grand last night
in the role of gentle Juliet. Every author
must have an ideal in mind in the creation
of his characters. 1t is not difficult to
imagine Miss MATHER as SHAKEsPEARE's
ideal Juliet. Her impersonation of this char
acter which the great dramatist has invested
with a mingled halo of romance and tragedy.
is one of the most delightful exhibitions of
professional work that the stage has ever pre-
sented. The charming feature Of the imper-
sonation is its naturalness. Miss MATHEWS
Juliet is not the puppet performance or the
lifeless tableau exposition which so many
dramatic stars insist upon making it, in order
to reveal the beauty of face and form, OF to
exhibit the skill of graceful stage posing.
Hers is warm, living, intelligent Juliet-a
maiden of the sweet South, guided in speech
andmoyemento nlyby the passionate impulses
of an ardent nature. Whether in the balcony
scene, with heart OVERLOOKING with a new
born love, or in the dismal precincts of the
vault where the young life is brought to a
tragic termination, not for a moment
does Miss MATHER exhibit the least
forgetfulness of the part she is playing nor
in a single instance does she fail to impart
most perfect realism to the impersonation.
No impartial critic can withhold from Miss
MATHER the distinction of being the best
Juliet on the stage to-day.
In fairness to others who essay this role it
must be said that no Juliet ever had such ac-
cessories as Miss MATHER. The stage setting
is marvel of artistic creation. The scenery
has properly been denominated an object
lesson in history.
1t is also Miss MATHER's good fortune to be
supported by one of the best companies on the
road. MILNEs LEvIcK and FREDERICK PAUL
DING are themselves stars of very considerable
magnitude. Their finished acting last
night merited the warm applause it
elected Mrs. Sol SMITH makes an
exceedingly clever nurse, and her in
depreciation of the humorous parts of
the character was exceptionally fine Miss
JEAN HAROLD as Lady Capulet, Mr.. HILLS as
Friar Lawrence and EUGENE JEPsoN as Cap
ulet were all excellent in the rendition of
their respective parts. In fact, every member
of the company is worthy of mention, if
space permitted.
1t was the first fashionable audience of the
season. With the exception of few back
seats on the lower floor the house was filled
with handsomely dressed audience of st.
Paul's prominent people.
Among other things, the nobby new cur
tains that Manager SCOTT has hung between
the foyer and the auditorium deserve
mention.

Robbed a Minister.
Special to the Glope.

BELo1T, Wis, Oct. 17.-Yesterday
morning in the little town of Rockton.
Ill.,, four miles from here, burglars en-
tered the residence of Rev. G. A. Miller,
pastor of the Congregational church.
Mr.. Miller was awakened by noise in
his room. On raising from the bed he
was ordered to lie still and on refusal
to obey was struck on the forehead with
a heavy billy. Blood flowed freely and
he was stunned for several minutes.
Mrs. Miller, on attempting to rise, was
also struck on the head. The burglars
then covered both with a revolver and
tied their hands and feet with bed cord.
Having ranSacked the house the
visitors demanded something to eat
and had plentiful meal When
ready to leave they offered to
unite the minister and his wife if they
would promise not to leave the house
until morning. The couple declined to
do this, and after examining the
wounded mans head the burglars with
drew. 1t was several hours before the
victims were able to free themselves.
Beyond nervous shock, there seems to
be nothing dangerous in the wounds, al
though they are painful. A little boy
in the house pretended he was asleep
although he saw the whole proceedings.
The burglars entered through the sec
ond story window. Sheriff Atkinson,
of WinnebagO county, was Informed i'm
mediately, but there are no traces of the
villains
